Disclaimer: I don't own Artemis Fowl.

That night when Artemis was sitting late on his laptop there was a knock on the door.

"Come in" he said wondering who was coming to see him at eleven o'clock at night. The door opened and Holly came in, dressed in a simple but effective green frock, obviously she didn't have any plans to go to bed soon.

"Holly you look gorgeous," said Artemis completely taken off guard. Artemis himself was wearing a suit as usual.

"Well don't just sit there gaping Mud Boy, I want to go outside and I thought you might like to come with me," Artemis nodded, "but I want you in something a bit more casual," Holly said heading over to his wardrobe. She shuffled through until she found it.

"This is it, Arty," she said holding out a blue silk shirt that matched his blue eye and a pair of black jeans. Artemis didn't want to but he knew that Holly would force him. So he went into his en-suite and got changed coming out looking like a normal teenage boy of fifteen. It was Holly's turn to gape.

"Wow," she finally spluttered "Arty you look hot." Artemis went slightly pink. Holly held out a pair of Nike sneakers which he put on. Artemis went to his cupboard and brought out some jackets. He gave one to Holly and he put one on himself.

"Well come on then Hol, where were you planning on going exactly?" asked Artemis. Holly smiled at the use of a pet name.

"I don't know. Why don't we just wander about," she said. Artemis nodded in agreement. So they went out one of the side doors.

Soon they were walking hand in hand along the tip of a small hill. Artemis sat down with Holly next to him watching the moon which was very bright that night. Holly put her arm round Artemis and her head on his shoulder. They sat for a while letting the atmosphere sink in.

"Arty?" asked Holly.

"Mmm?"

"When I went home after finding Opal did you think of me all the time?" Artemis hesitated.

"Yes, I did Holly; I couldn't stop thinking about you wondering if you felt something too."

"So did I, I thought of you day and night but everything I saw reminded me of you and I mean everything. It all linked back to you. Commander Kelp asked me what the problem was because I wasn't myself. I told him that I was just sad that Opal was still missing. But then we caught her so I couldn't use that excuse anymore. Trouble asked me again, I ran out crying thinking I had spoiled my chances with you. But I now know that I haven't." said Holly.

Artemis smiled at her then decided that only one thing could make this moment better. So he kissed her. This time more passionately then they had ever done before. Then it started to snow. Snowflakes falling into their hair making the moment more magical then they had ever dreamed of.

When they finally broke apart Holly shivered.

"We should go in now," said Artemis "before we catch a cold." Holly nodded still shivering. Artemis kept his arms round her, standing up and going back inside. They sat in one of the spare guest rooms, arms still around one another.

"Do you want anything to eat or drink Hol?" asked Artemis.

"No thanks Arty, Mulch told me about the sandwich," murmured Holly and she fell asleep. Artemis sat for awhile drinking in the feeling. Soon he fell asleep too arms still around one another.
